I would recommend this item to a friend.
A must have tool for a wood stove.
At first, I was concerned that the handle length was too long but I'm glad I tried using it before cutting the handle down. I realize now that the extra length keeps me away from my stove while I'm raking the coals which means I don't get nearly so hot. I didn't like the barbs on the sides of the tines so I ground those off. I really like this rake and I'm glad I bought it. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because some of the paint already chipped off of the handle.
